a few days ago i got a Fender Champion 110 with the 1 button footswitch at a local Salvation Army store for........get this.....................15 dollars! it looks and sounds like it's brand new and other than my Tech21 TM10, the best sounding solid state amplifier i've ever owned! what i want to know is, what years were these built and 2 : i know i got a killer deal but i'm wondering just how good this deal was. what are they selling for these days? i may actually sell my Crate V18 1x12 because to me, the Fender has a much better sounding clean tone. for the overdriven tones i have an Electroharmonix Big Muff PI with sustainer and that sounds better to me than any amplifier overdrive i've ever owned. the only other effect i use (besides the reverb, which is nice as well) and a vintage, made in the USA Morley optical wah pedal. i played all 7 of my guitars through this amp yesterday afternoon and i'm just so pleased with it i cant believe it. from my 50 dollar Squier HH Bullet to my Gretsch 5122 they all sound amazing through it.


so, what i took dozens of sentences to ask is this..........what years were these built and just how good of a deal moneywise DID i get?

The Champion 110's were the smallest amps in the Dyna-Touch line, manufactured from the mid '90s up to around 2000 when this particular model morphed into the Champion 30. Specs for the 110......25 watts RMS, 1 x 10 speaker, dual selectable channels, reverb, extension speaker jack (nice!), headphone jack (also nice!), 15.5"H x 17"W x 8.25"D, weight 25 lbs.

I've seen these on the secondary market go from $125 to $165 in nice shape so it sounds like you got a real bargain.
